My husband and I, two 67 year olds, embarked on the Big spaces cool streams with James, Mary and the local guide, Ekol. My husband has mobility problems at present but James and Ekol helped him and me to complete the trip in safety and with enjoyment. We would highly recommend this company and experience to anyone visiting Sarawak.

If you wish to get out from the hustle and bustle of Kuching city. Drive or take a guide to Sri Aman or Simanggang. it's a 5 hour return depending on traffic.

I booked this trip for extended family after having read great reviews on Tripadvisor. Bookings for in-laws tend to be tricky, so I kept my fingers crossed - this better be good. James and Mary are hands down the most professional, knowledgable and fun tour guides you could ever wish to spend a day in the jungle with. We had... More

Many thanks for the review and for making the day fun for us too! My man had been thinking about the rain and equipped our next guests (for whom it did exactly what it did for you) with a section of atap roof from a farm hut. They looked like a small village striding out of the jungle:) We hope... More

My friend and I embarked on the Bau History tour with James as our tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and well versed with the local history. Throughout the journey, he explained, in great details, the places that we would be visiting during this tour. We visited a charming village street with an inhouse bird's nest processing unit. The owner... More

My brother and I took a day tour (Bau history Tour) with James and Mary in June. We were the only guests on the day hence this was effectively a private tour. Tour sizes I believe are limited to 4-6 people anyway due to the number of seats in the vehicle. The day basically comprised us touring around in a... More

We booked for a day trip with Kuching Offroad.It was hassle free, we just had to send an inquiry through tripadvisor and the reply was prompt. We communicated through email with James who advised us on what was suitable for us based on our interest and fitness level. He picked us up punctually from our hotel and we began our... More

A great way to see and experience first hand some really interesting parts of the countryside and local culture around Kuching. We were accompanied by James, who has lived in the area for around ten years and he really got across his love of the area. His in-depth knowledge and easy way of getting it across put the geography and... More

We contacted James before our trip and explained that one of us is a wheelchair user and that we hoped to do many typically inaccessible things whilst on the island. He was excellent in response, research, preparation, and finally, in delivering the experience of a lifetime. Knowledgable in all things Borneo, he offered us a perspective that I'm certain most...

My girlfriend and I booked a last minute trip to Borneo last summer and signed up for a trip with James without really knowing what to expect... We had an amazing time! The first day was spent caving, something neither of us had done much of before and this was an excellent introduction. Some of the chambers were so expansive... More

James takes you well off the beaten path to explore the real Borneo. There are no tourist traps or McDonnalds on this trip. His local knowledge is excellent and the itinerary is flexible. One day is too short to visit all the locations so we decided what we wanted to do whlist driving out to the Bau area. We opted... More
